+1  Q: 

volume/mixer manipulation in GNOME

What is the Right Way for a well-behaved program in a GNOME environment to manipulate the mixer? (volume, muting, etc)

DBus? ALSA directly? something else?

+1  A: 

I'd say PulseAudio (see 2.5. Volume Control Integrated with PulseAudio in Gnome 2.26 Release Notes).
